Alex woke up in his bed, staring at the tiled ceiling of his dorm room at Drexler State college. He was a relatively new freshman at the college, only having attended for 2 weeks. He slumped out of bed and into a tiled floor, still riddled with sodas and chip bags from his "wild" night before. Alex was well aware he wasn't having the proper college experience, but at 2 inches tall the world wasn't exactly made for him. 

Only about 1 in every 10 people born had the condition that made them so small, and at such a low frequency it simply wasn't worth it to construct the world around them. Historically, the "tinies" as they were called suffered from constant persecution and slaughter by normal sized humans. Only in the last few decades has the world actually started to protect them consistently, well, as much as they could. 

None of that was on Alex's mind as he brushed his teeth in a minuscule sink. His roommate, Brian, had clearly already left. They hadn't spoken much and Alex couldn't blame him, he knew from his High School experience that tinies were just easy to ignore. He would have preferred rooming with another tiny but Drexler's size diversity initiative mandated it. 

After getting himself ready, Alex left for class. He got in his buggy, essentially a toy car, and drove it down the sidewalk toward his fist class of the day. On any given day, Alex could expect to be stopped or kicked by normal sized humans. Just because it is illegal to torture or kill tinies, doesn't mean people take kindly to them. Alex knew of this as he sped down the sidewalk, bracing for the thuds of the cracks.

Alex pulled into his first class: Calculus. He sucked at calc but he didn't mind it that much day-to-day. He climbed his ladder onto his desk and sat down, ready to struggle through another day. 

After the class was complete, Alex prepared to climb back down when he felt a shadow loom over him. He couldn't help but shudder, the memories of being bullied and even tortured him high school flashed back to him instantly. He was slightly relived as he felt a wave of warm, sweet smelling air wash over him and turned to see who it was: Kelsi. 

Alex met Kelsi at orientation. For once one of the size diversity programs actually helped him meet someone decent. She was relatively normal for a human, short with a bubbly personality, a cute face, and enough assets to keep the guys glancing. Alex wondered why she even continues to talk to him as he stared up at her giant figure from belly button level. She didn't mean to be imposing but she naturally moved in close to others, including Alex. Her exposed belly button stared back at him as she started to talk.

"Hey I have this thing tonight, I was invited to it, want to come with?"

Alex was flattered even before he knew what she was talking about. "Hey! Yeah- What kind of thing?"

"It's like a small party" 

A party? Alex wondered, "Yeah I can go" He said before he could even think it over. He'd inevitably regret that lapse in judgement.

"Great, see you tonight" Kelsi declared as she walked away, her hips swinging. 

What the hell did I just get myself into, Alex wondered.

As Alex meandered down from his desk, he was filled with anticipation. A party? That he was invited to? Finally a real college experience, he thought. Maybe he could even get with a girl. Would there be tiny girls? Do tinies usually even go to college parties with normal sized people? Alex had no idea, but the thought of the party spurred him on as he got in his buggy and started the drive to his dorm room. 

His mind raced in anticipation as he climbed the sidewalk in his small car. Parties were commonplace for others but for Alex this was his opportunity to make an impression and defy his size for once. His phone buzzed as a text from Kelsi arrived. 

"Get to my place at like 9 to drink, we'll go to the party after"

Perfect, Alex thought, he would arrive with the girls so there was no risk of getting turned away at the door. As he smiled down at his phone, Alex failed to see a giant pink converse crash into the side of his buggy. In an instant Alex felt his small car punted into the air, rolling around violently as the awkward shape of the car tumbled through the air. It crashed dramatically into the grass beside the sidewalk, rolling a few more times before settling upside-down. The cars were padded on the inside, the designers aware of the damage that could be done by normal sized people to the tinies inside. 

Alex crawled out, covered in many small cuts and bruises he stood up to see what had happened. In the distance a girl around his age was walking away, the pink converse skipping down the pavement. She'd kicked the buggy for fun when she was walking with no regards for Alex. To her he was just an ant or maybe a toy at best. Alex felt a familiar sadness sweep him as he turned to see the dented and contorted metal of his car. He'd have to put in a lot of work to fix it. For now, though, Alex wandered away from his buggy and he finished the walk up the hill to his apartment in sad solitude. 
He stumbled through his dorm room door to see Brian watching TV. Even given their awkward relationship, Brian couldn't help but comment.

"You get in a fight?" He asked with a smirk.

"I'm not really in the mood to talk about it" Alex responded. Normally that would be a lie to end the conversation but this time he meant it. Brian relented and returned to his show while Alex fixed himself up in his room. As more questions raced in his head about the party, Alex wanted to know more before jumping in, if he didn't ask any questions he could get hurt. It was no mystery to Alex that the missing persons rate for tinies was exponentially higher. He walked out to Brian, trying to be as casual as possible.

"You ever see any tinies at those parties you go to?" Alex asked.

"Uhh" Brian hesitated like a deer in headlights, "yeah.. sometimes"

Alex didn't really know what to make of that, but he pressed on.

"Is it like, dangerous to go to a party?"

"Are you going to one?" Brian responded, ignoring Alex's question.

"Mind your own shit Brian" Alex snapped, returning to his room to study for a few hours before the party. As he studied he thought about Brians response and exactly what he was thinking about when he hesitated. Eventually, he was able to shrug it off as being surprised. Alex didn't want to let anything get in the way of his excitement for this party.

"Are you sure about this?" Pat texted Alex

Pat was one of Alex's newfound friends, it helped that he was a similar size and he understood what it was like being so small in college.

"Yes I'm sure." Alex responded. He had just asked for a ride to Kelsi's apartment halfway across town.

"Okay, be there in an hour"

Alex locked his phone and tried to get some rest. As he lay there in his bed he couldn't help but be nervous and excited about the party. On one end, he was specifically instructed by other tinies not to try going to parties, but on the other hand this was his one chance to be cool and to fit in with normal people. If he missed this, he thought, it would be four years of social isolation. He couldn't risk it. Suddenly Alex's phone buzzed:

"Here" Pat was outside. How did the time pass so quickly, Alex pondered as he threw on a shirt he thought looked decent, but not too good because then Kelsi might think--

"Dude I'm here" Pat messaged again. Alex hopped down and headed for his door.

"Where are you headed" Brian asked, having not moved an inch.

"Don't worry about it" Alex replied as he walked out the door.

The buggy ride was pretty long. Pat barraged Alex with questions throughout. 

"So where is it?" Pat inquired, barely paying attention to the sidewalk.

"I don't know, we're meeting at her place"

"Like a pregame?"

"Uhh yeah sure I think" Alex felt defensive, this was his moment and not Pats.

"It seems like such a bad idea, what if you get crushed or eaten? You know I've heard plenty of stories about tinies at parties." Pat seemed genuinely concerned, but what did he know, thought Alex, he hasn't been to a party either. Probably just some jealousy mixed in with Pats normal tendency to be nervous about everything. Tinies had to be to stay safe in the modern world, it was all natural for them.

"It'll be fun, I'll let you know how it goes."

"Okay I guess" Pat said as he surrendered his concern and stopped on the sidewalk. "Is this it?"

Alex gazed up at the massive home. "Yeah, I think so, see you later man" 

"Good luck" Pat offered as Alex exited the car. He didn't need luck, he tried to reassure himself, this was gonna be easy. No problem. He took out his phone and texted Kelsi:

"I'm here" He waited at her door, nervous as he had ever been while he heard muffled talking and louder and louder vibrations. He saw an silhouette of a figure through the stained glass approach the door. It thundered open as Alex could barely stand the wave of air passing by him. In front of him were two bare feet, his eyes followed the legs up past a skimpy dress and to the eyes of Kelsi. 

"Alex! You made it!" She exclaimed as she bent down to pick him up. A gust of her perfume draped over him as her breasts, hardly contained in the dress, dangled over his figure only inches from crushing him. Her giant hand swooped down, her fingers gently extending and picking up his form. Alex settled on Kelsi's palm as she walked inside. The breeze of the house passed by him. He wondered if any other tinies were invited or just him. His question was quickly answered as Kelsi strode into her living room and, surrounding a small coffee table, three other giant women sat. Not only was he the only tiny, he was the only guy too. 

"He's here girls!" Kelsi announced. 

Here we go, Alex thought. 

Alex stepped off of Kelsi's outstretched hand onto the cold glass of her coffee table. Alex stumbled forward, his head gazing up as he squinted past the lights above him at the massive billboard sized faces staring back down at his tiny form. Alex felt the regret creeping into his head as silence filled the room for a moment.

"Well? Introduce yourselves!" Kelsi directed the three other girls. 

"I'm Ava" the girl to Alex's right announced first. He locked eyes with her immediately. For a normal sized person, she was somewhat short, maybe 5'1", but compared to him she was the size of an office building. Her skimpy dress was adorned with small flowers that curved around her form, each of which was larger than Alex in his entirety.  Behind her red lipstick and blue eyes, Alex saw a look of a deep and focused curiosity. It gave him goosebumps as he stood marooned on the glass table. He shook it off as nerves once again besieging him, and stumbled out a coy "Hi."

Ironically, Ava had been one of the largest opponents of inviting Alex to go with them. Kelsi had insisted, so she went along with it, but still had her hesitations of going with a tiny. Upon being introduced, Ava's opinion changed dramatically, something about looking down at the little person made her feel empowered. She was already debating making a move on him during the party -- or just taking him for herself, he was a tiny at a party after all, not like anyone would even notice if he disappeared. She crossed her legs and smiled at Alex, ready for the night.

"Grace" the next girl declared. Alex turned to see a taller girl who made him feel that much more insignificant. Alex tried to ignore her short skirt and thin tank-top which hardly hid her boobs, each of which almost dangled over him. Alex felt like if a strap broke he would be crushed under them. Behind the hills above him was her face, her eyes piercing through him with a complete lack of emotion. Alex struggled to tell if she was annoyed or just didn't show any feelings at all. She was clearly not as pasty white as the other girls, but Alex didn't want to comment, he couldn't tell what her ethnicity was at all. "Hey" he mumbled.

Grace was pissed. Why would Kelsi want this little shit here? What's even the point? It's not like having to take care of an ant all night will be fun for anyone. It made her furious that Kelsi had been so insistent. She did everything she could to be polite in that moment, but it was to preserve the night and nothing else. As she stared down she wondered if Kelsi would even notice if Alex went missing, probably not. One "Misstep" at the party and the ant would be a stain on some dirty carpet. Something inside her loved that idea.

"Ellie" the final girl called from Alex's right. Once again, he turned to see the last girl at their pregame. She was clearly the most confident of the group, with her head held high and her blonde hair drifting down past her shoulders. Similarly to Ava, she had a small dress on only hers was a bright red, covering Alex in the red reflected off of it. Alex gazed up at her face and to his surprise, she seemed to be glad to see him. Not a creepy smile but an honest one. Alex dropped some of the stress he was carrying, perhaps this girl could be a new friend. "Hi"

Ellie looked down at Alex. She was thrilled she and Kelsi convinced the others to let him come. She had always had a knack for befriending tinies and this was no exception. The red of her dress engulfed the reflective table as she looked over this guest. 
"Do you want a drink" Kelsi asked from behind.

"Uhh, yeah whatever you have" Alex responded as Kelsi walked into the other room. Only now did he notice that each of the girls was hugging a glass of something. Alex assumed that 'something' was mostly alcohol.

The girls began to banter above him. At first, they ignored Alex entirely, leaving him feeling awkward in the space. Kelsi couldn’t return soon enough, she was, after all, the only girl here he really knew. The girls we’re talking about some guy they knew, Alex couldn’t really tell nor did he care, at this point he just wanted to go to the party. Kelsi’s figure quickly appeared in the doorway to her kitchen, each of her hands grasping a glass, one much smaller than the other. She walked over, her perfume drifting down to greet Alex and brought the shallow glass down to him.

“This is a vodka soda, sorry I don’t have any smaller glasses. You’ll have to make this one work.” Kelsi said with a smile. Alex stared down at the kiddie-pool sized cup. The arid smell almost made him pass out, but he managed to drink a little anyway. The taste was very bitter, Kelsi clearly hadn’t skimped on the vodka.

“We should play a game!” Grace announced

“Yeah totally, what game though?” Ellie asked the group

Grace responded immediately: “Truth or dare” and, for the first time, she eyed Alex with a devilish smile. Alex felt a shiver run down his spine but chalked it up to nerves and maybe her personality.

“Alright who wants to go first” Grace asked aloud.

“I’ll go: Dare” Ava offered

Grace shot back quickly: “Chug your drink hoe” and, to Alex’s astonishment, Ava gulped down the drink in mere seconds. In celebration, she slammed the cup down on the table, almost crushing Alex in the process. The plastic ‘thunk’ of the cup causing Alex’s ears to ring in pain. Without skipping a beat Ava turned to Ellie and asked the same question: “Truth or Dare?”

“Truth”

Ava eyed Alex “Since you get along with these tinies how about this, have you ever got in on with one?”

Alex froze in fear, he felt even more awkward than before. At this point he wished the ringing in his ears would just drown out their voices. This was not going well.

“Once or twice” Ellie responded as she eyed Alex. The girls giggled around Alex as he tried to pretend he also found that funny and not a little intimidating. “Alright: Grace truth or dare?” Ellie finally asked.

“Dare”

Ellie thought for a moment, clearly she hadn’t had an answer ready. “Lick Alex.” The girls all laughed as Grace rolled her eyes.
“It’s a dare you have to!” Ellie added, smiling gleefully.

Alex watched as Grace’s hand approached rapidly, her fingers outstretched as if she was plucking a flower. She gazed down with virtually no emotion. Her massive finger pads surrounded Alex, pinching him with massive force. As she carried him to her face, Alex struggled to breathe from between her manicured fingers. Her fingers finally stopped in front of her lips, each glistening with an abundance of lipstick. They opened to reveal the darkest cavern Alex had ever seen. Her breath poured over Alex making him gag from the alcohol mixture she had been drinking.

It became clear to Alex in this moment that she was playing with him intentionally, she enjoyed this somehow. Without warning her tongue darted from the cavern of her mouth dangling in front of Alex. Alex could see every detail of her taste buds which prepared to give him a try. The enormous wet muscle made it’s approach and Alex turned his head to his side to no avail as it ground against his body. The small fibers grabbing his clothes and skin and dragging against them to his great pain. Alex tried to yell but thick saliva covered his face. Just when he thought it was over, the pointed tip of Grace’s tongue made a return to stab at his face and crotch. Still dangling from her fingers, Alex could do nothing as she toyed with him. Distantly, he could her the other girls laughing at the situation, egging her on. Finally her fingers drifted away from her mouth and dropped Alex on the table again.

--

Grace couldn’t help but roll her eyes when she heard the dare. Ellie was basically mocking her for not wanting Alex here. As she plucked him from the table she had an idea that thrilled her. Why not have a little fun with the bug? She took sweet pleasure in smothering him with her thick breath and poking and prodding him with her tongue. She could feel his squirming against her. It took everything she had not to pull him in and swallow him. Maybe later though, she thought.

--

Alex gasped for air as he hit the table. He felt like he almost died as the red skin rashes appeared all over him. As he breathed deeply the girls were all looking at him casually, as if nothing had happened.

“Alright that’s enough for truth or dare, let’s get ready to head out” Kelsi declared.

All of the girls chugged their drinks at once. Surrounded in the sound of their chugging, Alex wished he had the chance to drink more. Maybe that would lessen the pain he felt.

The girls all retrieved their belongings as they made final preparations for the party. Alex watched as the girls stumbled to get their items, they clearly were drinking a lot before he arrived. So much for their protection, he thought.

“Who’s gonna take the tiny” Grace asked the others. Alex didn’t really appreciate being called a ‘tiny’ but that was the least of his concerns.

“I’ll take him” Ava declared quickly.

“Okay just be careful with him” Kelsey added.

Ava walked over in a couple grand strides, taking a moment to look down at Alex from above. Once again he felt himself get goosebumps as the building-sized girl paused from above him. Her skimpy dress ending just above where he sat on the table. Each small flower that adorned it larger than Alex. She bent down, bringing her billboard sized face in front of him as she presented her hand for Alex to get onto. He did, and sat down as the powerful force of air rushing past him commenced. He felt like he was going to fall, but this wasn’t a particularly new feeling for him.

“Uber’s here!” Kelsey barked from the front window.

Alex watched as he passed through the entrance to her house atop Ava’s surprisingly soft hand. He couldn’t see much in the dark, but he could hear the clicking of the girl’s shoes as they approached the car. Once inside, he could still hardly see. Only the cars radio illuminated the backseat in a dim hue. Alex felt tired, the warmth and sweet smell of Ava’s cupped hand, along with the vodka, was making him drowsy. In an instant he snapped out of it as her hand suddenly lifted him to her face. He could hardly make out her curved features in front of him, but her whispered voice was clear:

“I’ll put you somewhere veeerry safe” Alex could tell she was at least tipsy. Her breath was worse than Grace’s and the smell of vodka hung over him for a moment. What did she mean by….safe..? Alex pondered for a brief second before the hand dropped out from under him. He spun through the air before landing at his destination: Her chest. Alex couldn’t see anything as he slid between the two giant orbs and became jammed. No light shined through and the heat she was producing was intense. Alex tried kicking and screaming but it was of no use: the drunk girl had him where she wanted him.

--

Ava smiled in the dark as she dropped the tiny into her bra. Feeling him sink into it and struggle between her breasts was even better than she had suspected. The idea that she had such dominance over a human being got her off, she rolled her shoulders forward and pressed her arms to her sides, pressing her boobs together within her already skin-tight dress. The movement near her core only escalated, the little thing must really be crushed in there. As she fantasized about the tiny struggling for life in her bra, Ava’s drunk hand drifted through the dark and settled between her legs. She massaged herself for minutes, trying to hold back her brief moans of pleasure. When the uber driver announced they had arrived, Ava snapped out of it and quickly pulled the tiny from her bra before the cars overhead light lit up. It was still moving, good, she thought.

--

For the second time Alex endured a living hell. He could hear her distant moans and her hastened heartbeat only inches away. The increased pressure of her massive boobs threatened to liquefy him in his place. The last thing Alex thought he’d be tonight is a blood stain on some drunk girls bra. Just as the world seemed most distant, the pressure went away and two massive digits hoisted him out and back onto the safety of Ava’s hand. As the car light shined from above he could hear Kelsey’s voice.

“You all ready to PARTY!?”

No, Alex thought.

One again Alex bounced around Ava’s soft hand. She wasn’t gentle with him at all, Alex didn’t expect her to be after what she just put him through. He wondered to himself if she even remembered who he was. He could hear the muffled voices of the girls through the skin all around him. He suspected they were stumbling toward the house, but he couldn’t really make out anything specific. Suddenly the movement stopped. Alex could hear a loud click and creak and within a second he couldn’t hear anything but a deep vibrating rumble.

They had arrived.

The gaps between Ava’s fingers let in a slowly changing light as she meandered into the party. A mixture of indistinguishable music and voices filled the space as he bounced around it. Alex then heard Ava saying something distinct:

“Oh my god, I haven’t seen you in forever!”

In an instant her fingers uncurled and Alex was blasted with light and loud music. Before he could react her hand moved forward and tilted. Alex finally understood what she was doing as her hand reached around another giant girl. The hug pressed Alex against the other girls back. Ava must’ve completely forgotten he was even in her hand. The momentary warmth filled the space as Alex felt the coarse threads of the random girls dress on one side and the familiar soft hand on the other. Suddenly, the hand was gone, and Alex grabbed onto one of the threads. Colors danced around him as the girl spun around and began meandering around the party. As his hands developed rope burn, Alex finally was forced to let go.

Alex flipped through the air like a ragdoll, eventually crashing onto the carpet below him. Alex coughed as he crawled forward, trying to focus in the midst of total body pain while his senses were bombarded by the rumbling blow and loud sounds above. Alex managed to gain footing and asses the situation. It was in this moment that Alex finally decided that this wasn’t the best idea he had ever had. Giant shoes surrounded him as college partiers socialized above him. A high heel landed next to him, very nearly impaling Alex on it’s heel. Alex knew he was one stumble away from being a forgotten red stain at this party. Looking around, Alex noticed that Kelsi was halfway across the room talking to a few others. He determined that she was his best way out of this.

Getting to her would mean navigating a terrain of people and dirty carpet, any step could be his last and Alex knew it. He carefully ran from area to area, dodging shoes and walking people all around him. He began to actually make progress, even as the torturous rumbling from the music deafened him. Alex was amazed that no one had noticed him, he knew regular sized people didn’t really care for tinies, but they were completely oblivious that he was even there.

He finally arrived near Kelsi, luckily she hadn’t gone anywhere in the time it took him to get to her. Looking at her reminded Alex of why he came in the first place, she looked hot. Especially from below. Her skimpy dress didn’t cover anything as Alex followed her legs up to her dress. Man, Alex thought, how great would it be to get in with her. Alex snapped out of it—No girl was worth dying for – not even Kelsi. 

Alex began yelling and waving his arms, but the music and his sheer size made it impossible for anyone to hear him below. Great, he thought, now what? He could…climb her? He thought about his own strength, and just how big Kelsi was compared to him. He figured that once he made it to her dress he could use the threads to climb it. Alex made his move, darting toward her as fast as he could. Her shoe, a low cut flat, hugged her foot. Alex got on top of her foot fairly easily. Now for the hard part, he hugged her ankle and began to shimmy up slowly. He tried not to look up—she was his friend after all – but as he climbed he couldn’t help but look. Each of the giant columns surrounded him, for a few moments he even found himself pausing in awe. Alex was shocked she couldn’t feel him climbing, then again, she was pretty drunk.

He made his way up her leg, eventually reaching her dress. Alex was wrong when he assumed the dress climbing would be easy, in reality he had a hard time gripping the silky material and he struggled towards his next problem: Kelsi’s breasts which dangled over him more than ever. Alex had no idea of how he would get over them, but it didn’t matter as his luck ran out. His hand slipped and for the second time he found himself falling through the air at this party. 

This time, he was met by a foot in full stride. Alex was kicked like a doll, flopping through the air as his side ringed in pain. He hit a soft object and rolled in between a new set of two large legs. In his soft canyon, he looked up to see a familiar face. It was Grace.
